Is the Slope Slippery, Or Is That Just Me?

I feel like things might start to change. 

I decided I need to start eating better.  I have a serious lack of vegetables in my life and tend to forget to make food from scratch.  So I made a resolution that I'd be healthier and stop eating all that awesome junk food that somehow falls into my cupboards.

It's always easier when doing something like this to have incentive and someone to be accountable to.  The Trucker offered to help and so I told him that he could punish me for every unnecessary indulgence (clarifying that some indulgences are completely necessary.)  I was only 80% serious and he jumped on the idea.  

We discussed it via text last night and today, and then again tonight in person.  In a week, we're going to try a month of him having control over what I eat.  Not everything, but I have to be totally honest about when I cheat.  Exceptions can be made for certain occasions, but I have to ask permission first and he can deny me.  He gets final say.

Part of me is kind of excited about this.  I will never be a 24/7 girl, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious about giving up control in more than a sexual sense.  And I like how into it he is.  Making him happy is something I like to do, so even better if it involves something we're both curious about exploring.

Of course on the other hand I'm worried about the slippery slope.  What if we both like it?  What if giving up control in a non-sexual way is something I enjoy?  What happens if we add on another thing, and another?  Three months ago I couldn't imagine that we'd be at this point.  Imagine where we could end up three months from now. 

I'll let you know how it goes.  For the moment I need to go collapse into bed and try and sooth my poor throat.  Tonight I got hit by a truck.
